Hello

My name is Tom Benton and I'm the proud founder of Serpentine Horticultural Services. I've always had a passion for horticulture, growing and design.

I qualified from Lackham Agricultural College with an NCH and HND in Pure Horticulture. This is where my passions began and my studies taught me a great deal about soil science, propagation, pests and diseases, nomenclature, and irrigation. 

I have worked in horticulture for over 20 years in the UK and abroad (in Portugal and New Zealand). I have developed a breadth of experience whilst working in a range of roles from organic farming, Town Council Parks and Gardens, growing vegetables and blooms, and gardening for private domestic and commercial clients. 

The most rewarding part of my job is interpreting a client's wish list and turning it into their dream outdoor space. I love all things horticultural and have a passion for growing delphiniums in my spare time.

Whether you are a big commercial interest or have a small garden in need of some TLC, we would be delighted to work with you.  So please do not hesitate to contact us.
